Emmy winner Bob Newhart will reprise the role of Arthur Jeffries in the CBS sitcom’s Dec. 17 episode, TVLine has learned. Naturally, Newhart’s character will once again appear as a ghostly Jedi, this time to help Shelton “sort out his feelings” and reach a crucial conclusion.

This marks Newhart’s fourth trip to Big Bang, having played Arthur once in Season 6 and twice in Season 7. His first episode, 2013’s “The Proton Resurgence,” clinched the legendary comedian’s first-ever Primetime Emmy Award.

Coincidentally (or not), Newhart’s appearance as a Jedi spirit also comes just one day before the national theatrical release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
